Purse Palooza 2012

Just popping in on this hot and beautiful holiday to tell you guys about a big blog event coming up. Should be loads of fun. Also, I'd like to say THANK YOU so much for all your sweet words about my Nanny and the PR&P win. I wasn't able to reply to each one like I wanted to, but you have no idea how much it meant to me! My grandfather and parents enjoyed reading through the comments as well. Thank you again!

Announcing Purse Palooza 2012!!

This is a fun event, which I will be guest posting for in June over at Sew Sweetness to get you sewing a purse for the summer! Here's how it works:

1. Every weekday in June, there will be 2 amazing guest bloggers scheduled to share with you a purse sewing pattern review. The review will contain detailed information about what they thought about the sewing pattern, modifications they made, what kind of interfacing they used, and more! Get inspired!

2. Even more exciting...THERE WILL BE A GIVEAWAY EVERY WEEKDAY IN JUNE! That's right, 20 GIVEAWAYS! Your Giveaway Fairy Godmother is Kim from My Go-Go Life - she has some unbelievable giveaways planned.

3. At the end of the event, you will get a chance to show off your purse in order to win some amazing prizes!
